Description

Same specs as the popular MP3600 but with our new Direct Ethernet EBOB card and the new DTHC 5 5th generation THC. This controller comes with a Linux computer and CommandCNC software.
NOTE: We no longer supply the DB-25 cable to connect the Axis I/O (MTA250 card)

Full Router support including POSTS for SheetCAM and Vetric VCarvePro and Aspireethod.

THE MP3700 – DTHC 5 is an advanced Ethernet connected Breakout Board, (EBOB) a 5th generation High Speed Digital Torch Height control and a hardware companion to CommandCNC™. It can be used to build simple or sophisticated CNC plasma or plasma router tables using steppers or servos as long as the drivers can take discreet step and direction logic signals. THIS IS YOU BEST CHOICE for a running Plasma or Plasma/router table to continue to use the power supply, motors and mechanics. Not all motors drivers are compatible so check your driver specs first. If you current controller is self contained with proprietary software this WILL NOT plugin and run!

One of the buying options is a Plasma Connection Kit that does the final connection to your plasma for automation control. Some models have standard pin-out connectors and internal voltage dividers. Others do not. While most plasma with arc start (pilot arc) will work they will need to use the Universal Connection kit offer in the choices.

Plasma Connection Kits

Once you have the MP3700-DTHC 5 and its optons selected and in your cart then its important to find the proper THC connection Kit that ties your plasma to the Digital Pickup (PWM Module) that comes with the MP3700-DTHC5

MP3700 Info tab

The MP3700-DTHC5 is the perfect solution for Plasma or Plasma-Router tables where the power section (AC and DC power , motor drivers , and motors) already exists or another power solution is desired. It handles all of the magic motion control , software, Torch Height Control and I/O signals. Hook up to 16 totally isolated noise immune filtered inputs for Homes , Limits, Safety Switches, Sensors etc. The MP3700 adds the next generation DIRECT ETHERNET EBOB that can control up to 8 motors. It all connects through the new MTA250 that has 8 step & Dir connection terminals. If your motor drivers can handle TTL level (5 vott) logic signals using “Step” and “Direction” (sometimes called PULSE and CW/CCW ) this system will give you pro level control using our famous CommandCNC running on LINUX. Used to poor performance THC’s or earlier generations of MACH based THC’s? The DTHC 5 will blow you away! With its own high speed independent processor it HELPS you cut by setting all of the cut parameters from the G-Code that is generated using our custom SheetCAM posts (free) . No more pushing buttons, twisting knobs or looking up values. Go hog wild and add the Optional RS485 SIM kit for the Hypertherm RS485 serial port (option from Hypertherm on most Powermax systems) and you then have TAP….Total Automated Plasma.

Super High Speed DTHC with PID tuning and real time response. Get astounding Z speeds while cutting.

Runs on Open Source (free) LINUX and uses LINUXCNC with CommandCNC™ layer

New AUTO – SET (cut and learn ) for DTHC

Scared of LINUX? Don’t be. It is 100% GUI (even our setup and configuration tools) and it talks to any Windows network, or uses any memory stick . Transfer files and use compatible applications on either platform SheetCAM (unlicensed) comes preloaded on the PC along with drawing and CAD programs. if you have a vlaid license for TNG on Windows it will work on the LINUX PC as well. Process your files on either platform.
